Winterizing Garden Beds

Winter is knocking on the door and your garden needs just a little bit of tending to before it will be ready.

Now is the time to make sure that you have pulled out all of the annuals that have died off. Trim back any perennials and bushes.

Take one more look around at your beds and pull any weeds that you see.

Grab some compost from your local garden center and spread over the beds to give them some protection from the harsh weather.

Last but by no means least do not forget to disconnect your garden hose from the faucet. Wrap up the hose and store it in the garage. If you have an insulated cover place it over the faucet to help prevent the pipes from freezing.
